Important InformationThe time on your voucher indicates the start of the pickup window, not the exact pickup time. Your actual pickup time depends on your location and will be confirmed by text and/or email the day before your visit. _________________________________Hotel Pickup & Drop-off Zone: Available only in the western districts of Paris (1st, 6th, 7th, 8th, 15th, 16th, and western parts of the 2nd, 5th, 14th, 17th).
